Great posts. I think with any pattern color choice is key. This pattern is super easy for a beginner and super quick for someone who needs to whip up a quilt in a hurry. I've made several. The "too scrappy" looked horrible as the pieces are fairly large. The quilts that I kept "color controlled scrappy" were much better. Sorry no pics...everything was given away. It's a great charity quilt pattern.

My favorite for a quick quilt is "Just Can't Cut It". It is so quick and has been pretty in several different color combinations I have made.

I have this pattern have made two twin size quilts from it. But where did it get the name???? I couldn't get a handle on that one. It seemed to be a real pain to put together, but it also was one of my first patterns to do. The second quilt I did in wine colors and called it" The road to the winery" because it nearly drove me to drink!!! I like simple and that one is and isn't simple to do, if that makes sense.

It is a matter of choice...I have this pattern, don't know why it is named YBR, other than it has lots of yellow...It is a easy pattern but also fun, in that you can do it in scrapy fabrics also...I have this quilt on my bed and love it...didn't do it in yellow and blue...it's pink, blue green, beige and some other colors...I might someday do another one, maybe lap size not king as the first on ....so it's a matter of like or don't like...

this is a pattern that has been around for a while. I am a little disturbed that it is bashed. I think that if someone likes it and wants to buy the pattern that is just dandy. If I don't like a pattern, I don't have to buy it. Let's not just bash because we don't see why someone would use it - I happen to like it and find it useful to do in a hurry.
